Story
This sweet girl is Kukura. She is approx 5 years old and around 47lbs. She is the sweetest girl ever and loves other dogs. She unfortunately was surrendered to the shelter being saved from a hoarding situation. Kukura has a gentle demeanor and while she is bashful when you first meet her, she will come to you for attention.    She's not used to being alone so a home where her humans rarely have to leave the house for long stretches of time or another friendly resident dog resides is her ideal home environment.    Apply to meet Kukura at https://www.muttsinneed.org/adoption-application.html

Story
Meet Our Resilient Beauty: Foxy Stop and take a look at those ears! This stunning Australian Shepherd mix is quite simply one of the most beautiful dogs we have ever had in our care. With her unique merle coat, expressive amber eyes, she turns heads everywhere she goes. She is a visually striking dog, but her journey is what truly touches our hearts. Foxy is 3.5 years old and weighs 42 pounds.   The Truth Behind the Beauty The sad reality of shelter life is that some dogs get left behind. Foxy has been waiting with us for much too long. When she first arrived, she was a standard, slightly energetic pup, but since than has withdrawn a bit around new people. She is one of our few dogs that we have in boarding and even though she hangs out with 20 dogs and is great with them. She’s become shy around new people, but loves the workers.   She is not a "plug-and-play" companion; she is a rehabilitation project wrapped in gorgeous fur. Because of this, she MUST be adopted into a home with at least one other confident, social dog. She needs a furry mentor to model good behavior, show her that the humans are safe, and remind her how to play.   Her Perfect Person Foxy requires a very specific type of home. This isn't a placement for a first-time dog owner or someone with a bustling, loud household. Her new owner must possess the following:   • Patience of a Saint: You will not get a "cuddle bug" on day one, or perhaps even day 5. She needs you to be her quiet, steady rock while she decompresses. • Zero Expectations: You must love her for who she is right now and celebrate tiny victories along the way • Time and Dedication: Training and bonding will require daily commitment to positive reinforcement and building trust at her extremely slow pace. • A Secure Yard: Because she is easily spooked, a fully secure fence is a must for her safety or a secure apartment.    Let's Help Her Write a New Chapter We know that this is a lot to ask of an adopter. But we also know that for the right person, helping a shy dog like Foxy blossom is one of the most rewarding experiences!  If you would like to meet Foxy, please fill out an application at   https://muttsinneed.org/apply/adopt

Story
Meet Ziggy! At just about 3 months old and 10 pounds, Ziggy is already stealing hearts everywhere he goes. This sweet little guy came in with his mom, Della, after they were found living in a filthy cage on a homeless encampment —but you’d never guess it from his loving, gentle nature. Ziggy is for sure an Australian Shepherd mix. His mom, Della, is a full aussie. We think the dad is an Australian Shepherd, cattle dog mix who was In the same encampment   Ziggy is ready for his fresh start—one filled with cozy naps, playful adventures, and a home to call his own. We would love to have Ziggy in a home with another dog. He really enjoys their company when he’s not snuggling with his foster mom.
